The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX325-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 325mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ40X325-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 225-325 mm usable travel window by allowing you to trim up to 100 mm from the 325 mm nominal stroke. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles mid-range actuation while enabling precise end-position tuning during commissioning without external stops.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for CMSE and DMSE sensors. Because the 325 mm stroke is relatively long, the M12x1.25 rod thread and 16 mm diameter should be paired with an external guide to manage side loads. The rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop, so live air is required to maintain position.

Dial in the exact end-stop for different package lengths on a packaging line without swapping cylinders or adding physical shims.
Fine-tune the 225-325 mm travel window during commissioning to perfect the seating force of a pressing operation.
Adjust the retract position on the fly to handle varying product sizes on a conveyor system without reprogramming the motion controller.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model when a machine setup requires variable end-stops or frequent product changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application needs less push force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify a 40 mm bore, 325 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT tapered ports, SUS304 rod, and the -S magnet.
For strokes of 325 mm or more, always support the load with an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. Remember that neither the rear adjuster nor the variable air cushions will hold a load without continuous air pressure. If your machine requires true fail-safe load holding, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, or select the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder generates 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At the maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers up to 128 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the 325 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a 225-325 mm usable window. It functions as a mechanical stop to set the retract position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
